Soccer legend Diego Maradona offers an unconventional view on why the biggest names fell short.

Uruguayan star Diego Forlan has found a longtime friend in a soccer legend from another country.
Also: The octopus says Spain over Germany.
Could be, but it will be the first match that has the potential to be a thing of beauty in this World Cup tourney.In the Uruguay - Netherlands game, it could go either way. Neither team expected or was expected to be this deep into the tournament - in fact the Dutch are 'homeless' now having not booked rooms in their hotel for this late in the tourney.
As everyone here knows I have said since April that it would be a team that no one thought to win the Cup that would be the one to do so. I had thought it would have Ghana even then ... and they should be in the semi-finals and would be but for the horrendous officiating and blatant cheating of this tournament ... but that's an entirely different story in and of itself.
I still hold that it will be a team no one thought of as winning the Cup will be the team ending up lifting the Cup ... and being that it is Uruguay or the Netherlands that have not been thought of as winning the Cup - the winner of their match will be the tournament champion barring any more of that horrendous officiating and/or blatant cheating that has sourly marked this tourney thus far in the final match with the winner of the Spain/Germany match.
Update: Looks like the Netherlands will be the Cup winners having bested Uruguay 3 - 2.
The official who missed a World Cup goal says he "could sense" soon after that something was wrong.
